[origin: US6036131A] PCT No. PCT/JP96/03562 Sec. 371 Date Dec. 3, 1997 Sec. 102(e) Date Dec. 3, 1997 PCT Filed Dec. 5, 1996 PCT Pub. No. WO97/21217 PCT Pub. Date Jun. 12, 1997A reel braking mechanism for a magnetic tape recording and/or reproducing apparatus includes first and second reels (5L, 5R), and first and second reel support bases (3L, 3R) for rotatably supporting thereon the first and second reels, respectively the first and second reels are movable together with the first and second reel support bases (3L, 3R) between a first cassette position corresponding to a hub-to-hub distance in a standard tape cassette and a second cassette position corresponding to a hub-to-hub distance for a compact tape cassette. The reel braking mechanism includes a brake lever (7L, 7R) movably mounted on each of the first and second reel support bases (3L, 3R) and having a first arm (7a) engageable with the corresponding reel and a second arm (7b). The brake lever is movable between an engaged position in which the first arm (7a) is engaged with the corresponding reel to hold the reel and a disengaged position in which the first arm (7a) is disengaged from the corresponding reel. A pushing element (10L, 10R, 10a, 11L, 11R; 10L, 10R, 10a, 11L, 11R, 24L, 14R; 10L, 10R, 11L, 11R, 30L, 30R) for pushing the second arm (7b), regardless of the position of the corresponding reel, to urges the brake lever (7L, 7R) towards the engaged position to thereby cause the first arm (7a) to be brought into frictional engagement with the corresponding reel.
